I’m not getting quite the same buzz from all the stuff that Guy brings from the Bakery. He’s bringing instruments down now. He even had Will sing to me. The start of Us Against The World resonated in my ears. But there was something missing. Jonny’s melody… My heart breaks again. It just wasn’t right. Nothing’s right. I could never go on without him. I stay firmly down here.

“It’s not working anymore, is it?” Guy sounds just about ready to give up on everything.

“Stop it,” Will retorts. We know damn well he can hear us now, and that kind of talk isn’t gonna encourage him.”

“What, and this is?”

“Look, we will find something that works. Try something different again.” Silence descends for a few moments. Then I hear a voice, a voice I have longed to hear for so long. Jonny. But of course it’s just a recording, and my mind doesn’t fall for it. I get a massive boost for a while, but that’s it. “There! He’s reacting more again. Put on some more.” I’m getting close now. I can feel it. If I could just have Jon with me again once more, he’s all I need now. But I can’t. I can’t have him. He can’t come to fix me.

Jonny’s POV

 They still won’t let me see him. They don’t understand just how much I really love him. I’m just lost without him. He’s always in my head. I feel so tired but I can’t sleep. I need him there. Now I may never see him again. That’s the hardest part.
